Convection Baking and Convection Roasting

g

=

Dtwing baking or roasting, a heating element is used to raise the temperatm'e of the airinside the oven. Any oven temperature fl'om 225°E to 450°E may be programmed. A timgently circulates this heated air throughout the oven, over and around the toed, producinggolden brown exterims and rich moist interiors. This drculafion ot heated air is calledconvection.

Because the heated air is kept constantly moving, not pemfitting a laver ot cooler air todevelop arotmd the fi)od, some fi)ods cook tipster than in regular oven cooking.
